I tried to install HSBC and HSQL-sqlite3, Bot fail, And the error report is:
cabal install HDBC Resolving dependencies... Configuring old-locale-1.0.0.7... Configuring utf8-string-1.0.1.1... Building old-locale-1.0.0.7... Building utf8-string-1.0.1.1...

But the path to gcc is correct, and gc works fine. I had a similar problem once, and the issue was that the autoconf script didn't allow paths with spaces, Odd since Haskell installs into "Haskell Package" on windows. That time I had to reconfigure my whole installation (eliminating the space character), and then install it, and then restore the paths to what they were. Is this an ongoing issue? Should I reconfigure Haskell to install differently?
